Open to Children's/ YA Book Submissions: Tumblehome Learning

Post date: 28 February 2012

GENERAL SUBMISSIONS

Tumblehome Learning has opened submissions for children’s and YA adventure books, mystery books, and biographies that center around science themes. Submissions should be based around real science and be appropriate for somewhere between ages 7 and 17. We accept manuscripts 25,000 to 70,000 words in length, but no simultaneous submissions.

Our readers are looking for exciting stories with a little bit of learning along the way. THL readers are fans of “fun facts” they can share with their friends and family. The science fiction in THL books center around real science. The only aliens found in THL books are microorganism fossils found in meteorites.

A cover letter that includes your name and contact information and the title of the submitted work. Also mention any qualifications you have that pertain to the work or any previous works you have published in paying markets.

A synopsis of the entire book. The synopsis should include all important plot elements of the story, and don’t be afraid to spoil the ending.

The first three chapters of your book in MS Word or a PDF document.

HOW TO SUBMIT TO TUMBLEHOME LEARNING:

Tumblehome Learning only accepts electronic submissions. All submissions should be sent electronically to our editor at submissions@tumblehomelearning.com.
